<x-tab> </x-tab>Thanks for
the clip. Funny to watch but isn't that a block and tackle that he
carries up the ladder? Now if I could only find a suitable awning to hang
it from!!<br><br>

formats in which to view that clip from the film. It is VERY funny.<br>

<dd><font color="#400040">On 4 occasions I have hoisted grand pianos to a
second floor balcony with an engine hoist with and electric winch
attached to the end and two big guys standing on the base for a
counterbalance. The hoist was disassembled to move upstairs.
A 2X4 was screwed to the edge of the balcony to keep it from rolling
off.<br>
